    Anecdotal evidence is not an evidence. As a grown man, you should know that.

    He stopped Buddy Baer in one round and Buddy was bigger than any notable fighter than Fury ever stopped.

    This is your proof ? Louis KOing a small weak bum ?!?
    Many HWs could take out this weakling.

    This was after countless rounds of pummeling where the guy was already weak.

    I haven't really watched Tom much, so I don't have enough information to say yes or no.

    That was in the rematch and after a lot of pummeling.
    In the first fight it took him 6 rounds.
    And Baer was a tall skilless oaf, a million times more hittable than Fury.

    Please show me a Mike Tyson one punch KO against a class opponent.

    Usually when people move the goal posts on this subject, the end result is that there are no one punch knockouts by anyone ever. There are a million levers to pull if one wishes to be pedantic.

    Opponent too small.
    Opponent too weak.
    Opponent took too many punches prior to the KO to consider it 1 punch, etc etc etc

    Who is the best fighter that Fury stopped in six rounds or less?

    One fight means nothing, there are plenty of brutal fights with bigger gloves as well.

    So you found another excuse? By your standards, nobody hits hard, even yourr beloved Tyson.

    I partially agree. But the point I'm trying to make is that Louis ain't gonna take out Fury with one punch, therefore he needs a lot of pummeling or a 5-6 punch combo in order to win. And I don't think he can achieve that. Sure, he might catch Fury with 1 or 2 occasional good punches, but never enough to have him in trouble.
